FAQs
What kinds of water purification systems do you install for Calhoun homes?
We offer and install a full range of systems, including whole-house carbon filtration units, reverse-osmosis (RO) drinking water stations, water softeners for hard-water mitigation, UV sterilizers to neutralize microbes, and combination systems that address multiple concerns at once. During a free on-site consultation, we test your water and recommend the technology—or mix of technologies—that best meets your family’s needs and budget.
Is Calhoun’s municipal water already safe? Why would I need extra filtration?
Calhoun’s public water meets federal safety standards, but it can still contain chlorine by-products, trace pharmaceuticals, industrial contaminants, sediments, and minerals that affect taste, odor, and appliance longevity. A dedicated purification system lets you remove these residuals, improving flavor, protecting plumbing fixtures from scale buildup, and giving you an extra layer of security against potential main-line or infrastructure issues.
How do I know which purification system is right for my water?
We begin with a comprehensive water analysis that measures hardness, pH, chlorine, total dissolved solids (TDS), iron, sulfur, and bacterial activity. Based on those results—as well as the size of your household, flow-rate requirements, and any health concerns—we design a customized solution. For example, high TDS and hardness often call for a softener plus RO, while sulfur odors may require an aeration or catalytic carbon setup.
Will a purification system reduce my water pressure?
Properly sized equipment will not noticeably affect household pressure. We calculate peak-demand flow rates and choose units with adequately sized media tanks, valves, and RO membranes. For larger homes, we can incorporate booster pumps or parallel filtration tanks to maintain consistent pressure throughout showers, appliances, and outdoor spigots.
How much maintenance is required after installation?
Most systems need only simple, periodic care. Carbon filters typically require media replacement every 3–5 years, water softeners need salt replenishment every 4–6 weeks, and RO systems use inexpensive pre- and post-filters that you swap out annually, with the membrane lasting 3–5 years. UV lamps are replaced once a year. We offer affordable maintenance plans and can text you reminders when service is due.
What is the average cost of installing a home water purification system in Calhoun?
Pricing varies by water chemistry and system complexity. A point-of-use RO drinking station starts around $450 installed, whole-house carbon or softening units typically range from $1,100 to $2,400, and multi-stage setups that combine softening, carbon, and UV can run between $2,800 and $4,500.
